it never leaned romney. romney has never had a lean during the entire year in ohio but, look, part of the disadvantage romney has and part of the reason you have the headquarter numbers so big is because obama has been fighting for ohio for four years. they enough turn down their structure from four years ago and obama, romney, because of the primaries could not put as much focus on so that is a disadvantage. >> there clearly has been movement in the polls inabilitily and in the swing states. romney, especially, since the first debate in early october. how do you read this race. >> let's assume everyone is right that ohio is the linchpin which i think is reasonable supposition. you have a southwest national polls to include gallup and rasmussen that show romney with four, five, or six point lead and another one tomorrow and this is a bipartisan poll which is a sell it poll, reliable poll, showing romney up five nationally. in the battleground states. it is the battle ground poll is the name of it, a national
